them the majority in the new ukrainian parliament and this could in fact spell big trouble for president bush because the opposition has been saying all along that one of its first decisions should gain a majority in the new parliament would be to impeach the president now the biggest intrigue which remains still is whether the party of the former heavyweight champion boxing champion of the world. will be willing to join the opposition in the new coalition within the parliament because so far this court has been saying that he will not form the coalition with the ruling party but still he hasn't officially confirmed that he will be willing to make a new alliance of parties within the parliament with the opposition parties the exit poll results are based only on the proportional seats on the parties which were voted for him during this election but things may change when they count the votes for independent candidates which were also running and they will make up in fact half of the parliament clearly the main talk will take place after the
